I realize how redundant it is to complain about "reality shows" when everybody and their dumbass co-workers seem to enjoy at least one of them. Myself, I have never been a regualr watcher of reality shows. Not only do I have plenty of reality in my own life, but I also think I'd actually be insprired to open fire on people this stupid who are making this much money. Surprisingly, I am more offended than usual at the idea of Film Fakers (although The Biggest Loser is also making me hopping mad). Where they make fun of aspiring actors who have agreed to act in a horrible film and pretend like they like it. The problem is, how many famous actors have done that just to get somewhere in thier careers?
Do we make fun of Kevin Bacon, Brad Pitt, or Johnny Depp for thier turns in awful horror films? No, because that's what young actors do. Setting up a fake director with a fake crew for the sole purpose of laughing at people for taking it seriously is evil and wrong. I mean, if you're tricking 30 model types trying to marry a rich guy--I say go for it, because the women involved are already wretched harridans. But mocking young kids whose only faux pas is wanting to act, and agreeing to do something sub par to gain exposure? Who among you wouldn't act in a film for say, $2,000?
In other Wednews, I have to go to the stupid doc today, and I don't want to. I got up early since I thought someone had called me about a job, but it turned out to be Ryan, letting me know he's coming home tomorrow. So, still no job calls. Apparently, I still suck and am unhireable. So, if any of you need a high school or college paper written for cash, or if you're having a party and need someone to cook, do let me know.
That said, I'm probably going to buy Dawn of the Dead today, because I feel shitty and deserve a present.
I'm also going to put in some applications at the mall, see if I can't score a crappy retail gig for a few months.
